A pair of rhinestone earrings Marilyn Monroe wore to a 1955 Hollywood film premiere have sold at auction for $US185,000 ($A197,123.07).
Julien's Auctions said in a statement on Sunday that the actress wore the jewellery when she attended the opening of The Rose Tattoo.
Monroe did not appear in the film based on a Tennessee Williams play.
The price included a 20 per cent commission for the auction house.
The buyer was a foreign collector. Julien's does not release the names of buyers.
The sale was part of a two-day auction of Hollywood memorabilia Friday and Saturday at Julien's Beverly Hills gallery.
A lighter used by Humphrey Bogart sold for $US19,200, and a 1986 Pontiac Firebird owned by David Hasselhoff was purchased for $US152,600.
